Known also as Marguerite, dog-daisy or moon daisy, ox-eyes used not to flower until June but no doubt as a result of climate change we now can enjoy them from early May.
The flowers are at their best when seen in drifts swaying gently in the breeze, often attracting butterflies and other insects.
The name daisy is a corruption of 'day's- eye' alluding to the golden centre like a small sun with dazzling white rays or petals radiating from it.
